First Camino, Beginning May, 2016!

[Hope0925]

Hello all,
I understand to add your name to the calendar you must begin a new thread, so here I am. I am flying into Paris from Ottawa, Canada, early in the morning on May 5, staying in St Jean Pied de Port May 5th and 6th, starting out May 7 and staying that night in Orisson. After that it's winging it all the way. This forum has been such an invaluable resource and I thank everyone for sharing their thoughts. Looking forward to meeting others traveling at the same time. Buen Camino!

We are leaving the same day and staying in Orisson also. Can't wait to meet up. Is the anticipation making you crazy too? see you soon.

I did exactly the same last year - and arrived in Santiago on June 13th. Wonderful time of year. This year I'll be starting in Leon, mostly to re-live a wonderful experience and also to accompany a friend on his first camino. We should be leaving Leon about June 3 or 4 and hoping to catch the Honroso festival in Hospitàl de Órbigo. I'm going to be wearing my wine red t-shirt in case of accidents! Buen Camino

I will possibly run into you at some point because my partner is flying out to join me on May 31 and we figure Leon is probably a good place to meet.

Buen Camino!

Hi Jane,
Our plans are firming up. Jim & I will be arriving in Leon June 1st evening. We will be laying over a day, then starting leisurely out on the 3rd, probably staying in Villadangos on the way. Hope to say hello. Buen Camino
